Rafael Nadal wins third U.S. Open title
Rafael Nadal restored order to this eccentric US Open last night, easing to a comfortable 6-3, 6-3, 6-4 victory over giant South African Kevin Anderson on Arthur Ashe Stadium.
This contest always had “blowout” written on it. Anderson came in as a first-time major finalist, and the lowest-ranked man – at No. 32 in the world - to play for the US Open trophy. No wonder Nadal had been listed at prohibitive odds to secure a 16th grand-slam title.
Like the women’s final on Saturday evening, the big occasion soon dwindled away into predictability. Nadal was dominant throughout. He broke the giant Anderson serve - which touched 136mph at one stage - no fewer than four times, while never giving up a break point himself.

R. NADAL/K. Anderson 6-3, 6-3, 6-4
THE MODERATOR: Questions, please.
Q. Obviously the loss is fresh. I'm sure it hurts. The fact that you played in a Grand Slam final, you said on the court, he's a contemporary of yours, playing with Rafa, arguably playing the best tennis of his career. What does that experience mean to you?
KEVIN ANDERSON: Yeah, it's definitely a few emotions and experiences I'm going to take from this whole two weeks. I mean, obviously very pleased of making my way through to the finals and having that experience.
I mean, a few players, you know, get that chance. It's very tough. To step out on court against Rafa tonight, you know, I learned a lot of lessons. It was a difficult match, up against somebody who has been on that stage over 20 times before.
You know, definitely a few things I needed to have done better. Obviously I had my work cut out for me, but I think overall, obviously it's been, you know, a very, very positive two weeks for me.

K. ANDERSON/P. Carreno Busta 4-6, 7-5, 6-3, 6-4
THE MODERATOR: Questions, please.
Q. Kevin Curren was the last South African to reach a major final of a Grand Slam. He was famous for saying they should drop an A-bomb on the US Open because he didn't like the smell of the place. I'm guessing you don't feel that way?
KEVIN ANDERSON: No, I don't. Definitely amazing feeling being in this position and have worked very hard to get here. It feels great to be in the stage I'm in.
More important, have given myself a shot at being in the finals and, you know, I will be playing for a Grand Slam trophy. That's an amazing feeling. I have to get ready. Still obviously a very difficult match ahead of me, but I think right now I'm just trying to unwind a little bit and just enjoy sort of today's match.

Anderson fired 66 winners, including 22 aces to win and deny Querrey a place in back-to-back grand slam semi-finals, claiming a place in the last four of a slam for the first time himself.
"(I'm) pretty happy," Querrey said. "At the beginning of the week, if you said I would have made quarters, I probably would have signed up for that.
